There is a conversation happening about AI replacing writers, driven by people who neither write, nor make and use AI, and it’s so thoroughly free of real world facts or details they might as well be talking about a cool magic wand they heard about.
“Um like if you wanted two characters to kiss but they hated each other could um like the AI make that cheaper and faster”
People get so excited about new technology replacing something that already exists that they will order a book online, pay additional shipping, and wait a week for it to arrive instead of going to a bookstore and twenty years later that guy will be rich enough to own spaceships.

Everyone on this website who bills themselves as a great thinker is living bad take to bad take like some kind of Clickbait Uncut Gems keeping the lights on for another day by asking out loud if waiters should be paid at all or why children don’t get married anymore

I would never bring my family to a city as dangerous as New York, not after hearing about those cats breaking the fourth wall and prancing directly into the audience
